ECON101 – midterm

Some more midterms now, I already had three this and last week.
THis now, was very particular, since I decided to take this course just this Monday (today: Friday) and as I got another midterm on Wednesday (where I have joined the class just in the fourth week) it got some what heavy. Nevertheless, I enjoyed reading the textbook (the Prof. lent me his book) a lot, the I just finished reading yesteday late.
But as there has been a party at our place starting at 10 o’clock, it was pretty loud in the end, so I switched to solving exercises after almost finishing the reading. Finally I went for short to the party (the house was full of people, maybe 30 and music at the top level. Happy feeling, peaceful.) and went then to bed at half past midnight. Well, I tried to, but finally as the music speaker was exactl located one floor under my bed, I abandoned this idea after 5 minutes. And so I had to withdraw from my room. – My helpful african friend Alex lent me his bed right away and so I still got a reasonable amount of 6.5 hours of sleep. =)

The exam though was really nice, I new the answers very well, and this exam was just as I wish them to be: According to the text book and not trying to fool anybody with extra material profided during lectures or review sessions.

One thing still to mention: Just before the exam I met the other ECON101 teacher of the class I used to assist up to last week, Larry Smith. As he told us last week, companies economy would not be able to rise for a very long time, what he thinks about the globally rising economy, he then told me that David Suzuki would be wrong and The Limits to Growth of the “Club of Rome” would be wrong. Unfortunately he did not have time for further explanations and discussion.
